Green grow the rushes, O

I can’t get this song out of my head:

"I'll sing you one, O
Green grow the rushes, O

What is your one, O?
One is one and all alone
and ever more shall be so!

I'll sing you a two, O
Green grow the rushes, O

What is your two, O?
Two, two, the lilly white boys, clothed all in green, ho ho

One is one and all alone
and ever more shall be so!"

Steed is accompanying me to a house party at the estate of a famous book collector. Then I’m off to Antigua for New Year’s. (I told Steed I was going to Bermuda, so shh.)

Compliments of the season to all. See you in the new year.

"Here comes a candle to light you to bed. . ."

I lift an eyebrow in sophisticated salute to your festive Christmas, Mrs Peel.
